Match report
1. FC Köln and FC Schalke 04 finished level at 0-0 after a match that never produced a breakthrough. Schalke made two changes on 43 minutes and held on through a second half in which Köln had more of the ball and more of the chances without finding a winner.
The first half brought no goals, only a stop-start spell before the break. Tom Krauß was booked in the 45th minute and the sides went in at 0-0.
Köln changed things on 68 minutes when Luca Waldschmidt came on for Mikey Moore, then made another two changes on 80 minutes as Paul Okon-Engstler replaced Tom Krauß and Reigan Heskey came on for Said El Mala. They pressed late, and Schalke stayed level after their changes on 43 minutes. Köln then made two further substitutions on 90 minutes, with Jan Thielmann replacing Linton Maina and Joel Schmied taking the place of Luka Lochoshvili.
The numbers favoured Köln. They had 62% of the ball, 545 passes to Schalke's 323, 14 shots to 9 and 5 on target to 1. They also finished with 1.28 expected goals to Schalke's 0.66, 6 corners to 5 and 4 offsides to none, while Schalke needed 4 saves to keep the draw intact.
There were five bookings. Köln's were Tom Krauß on 45+2 minutes and Luka Lochoshvili on 81 minutes. Schalke's were Junior Dina Ebimbe on 71 minutes, Vitalie Becker on 83 minutes and Hasan Kuruçay on 89 minutes.
